The Oscars....

[paned*expressions]

oscars get it completely wrong shock.

tsotsi LMAO

perhaps it was the only one they bothered to watch, useless pricks.

I was just glad to see Broke Back Mountain not getting best film.

[Genodo]

Yes. It's called Hollywood Homophobia.

Crash didn't win, BBM lost through cowardice.

It's won every single Best Picture award there is to get ... except for the SAG, which is voted for by the same people who vote in the Oscars.

The writing was on the wall then, really.

[Babeees <333]

What Homophobia would this be? Why should BBM get best movie award? If that film had been about two straight cowboys it would have received nothing at all. I'm not Homophobic but I detest being preached to about homosexuality. 2 gay cowboys, big deal I don't care. I'm surprised Peter jackson didn't get it again as his direction on Kong was sublime. Now that was a film worthy of awarRAB, BBM and Crash were not IMHO.

Agree about BBM. Totally overhyped, and although there were probably better films than Crash, the latter filled the Oscar criteria of being "worthy" and was a heap better than BBM.

Philadelphia won Tom Hanks a best Actor gong didn't it? despite being a crap film but yippededoodah, a straight actor plaing an AiRAB' victim in a mainstream Hollywood film. Well. obviously we have to award it a major gong!

The Academy AwarRAB have usually diddley squat to do with genuine talent and everything to do with Political Correctness and "worthiness".

How many huge blockbusters have ever won in the last 10 years, apart from Titanic? (which has to be one of the worst films ever made, the dialogue was appalling, the only decent thing about it was the special effects)

[wickedred]

And if King Kong had been about racism and set in Los Angeles it would have won the Oscar.

Ah so that's where Peter Jackson went wrong Joking aside, you make a very good point.
